List symbolic links and location, pointing to a particular directory?

Symbolic links are uni-directional and 'entirely contained' in each link file - there's no separate list of links, or reverse link - you'll have to use find. I presume you're using find / -type l to restrict 'find' to only report files that are symbolic links. Have you restricted the search to eliminate areas that definitely won't contain links to your directory-in-question?

I did use find with type l option. However, I did not eliminate any areas, because that is negating my purpose. – Venkataramesh Kommoju Jan 7 at 10:16.

You can use this command, replace targetdir by the directory your are looking for: TARGET=targetdir; find . -type l -exec ls -l {} \; | grep -- "-> $TARGET.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
